More than 140 spring break ers were arrested in connection with two rowdy parties in an Alabama beach town, with one ending after an individual poured beer on a responding police officer’s head. The incident unfolded around 11 p.
m. Thursday, March 26, when officers with the Gulf Shores Police Department were called to a home on West Beach Boulevard regarding reports of a large crowd and loud music, according to WALA. When police arrived, they discovered over 100 underage youngsters inside the home. 'We found 113 people inside the house,' Gulf Shores Police Detective Carl Wittstruck said, WALA reported. 'Our officers responded to the scene to investigate.' WILD TEXAS PARTY OF 800 AT AIRBNB BROKEN UP BY POLICE AS SHOTS FIRED As authorities arrived at the home, one individual reportedly dumped beer over an officer’s head, soaking his uniform and equipment. 'While trying to determine who had rented the property, a person who is unknown on a balcony above the officer, decided to pour beer from above, soaking one of our officers,' Wittstruck added. Officers from three separate agencies ultimately arrested 109 individuals for alleged underage drinking at the party, WALA reported. At least one other person was also reportedly taken into custody and charged with complicity.

The bust came just one day after 33 people were taken into custody at yet another party just down the street, the Gulf Shores Police Department said in a social media post. Officers responded to a report of a large party in the 1300 block of West Beach Boulevard around 11 p.m. Wednesday, March 25.
